Teresa: Now You See Her, Now You Don’t
I hate to pile on, (not really) but here is an anecdote on the media feud between Dale Jr. and Ma Teresa I missed. According to Louis Brewster, Staff Writer for the San Bernardino Sun DEI hosted a dinner during last weeks media gaggle.
With all the media attention on Earnhardt family matters of late the question on many minds was whether she would make an appearance.
Those expecting Teresa to be a no show were disappointed, sort of.
She appeared apparition-like, for all of 49 seconds.
The remainder of her time was out of sight for the media, but within view of her three drivers and newly-appointed CEO, Max Spiegel.
While Martin Truex Jr. fielded questions about his recent run-in with the law and Junior the continuing barrage of querys about the “family feud” she made herself unavailable.
Both the DEI Jr’s are more than able to respond to any and everything some ink-stained scribe can throw at them, but it’s a pretty classless act by Ma Teresa hiding from the media. Again.

Seems like TeresaGate is reaching the boiling point!
Teresa is a strange bird.
David Poole did an interview with her a few days ago in LA based on the release of the movie. She mandated no questions other than those pertaining the the movie would be allowed.
Poole also said it had been 5 years since she gave him permission for any type of interview. Strange behaviour and not a very “friendly” way to treat one of the most respected reporters in NASCAR.
Please, there may not be much to discuss NASCAR- wise these days, but the Dale Jr. vs. Tess battle is the least news worthy. After all the family bickering is done, Dale Jr. will make a shitload more dollar wise, as well as have a piece of the biz with total ownership not far over the horizon.
Anyone willing to get in the midddle of this family dispute will get their slats kicked in, right Kevin?
